Virtual Employee Onboarding

Gain ideas on how to conduct virtual onboarding experiences in the most effective ways, aligned with best practice.

Onboarding is critical to the socialization of new employees in a new corporate culture. Research indicates that employee impressions formed during onboarding can affect stay-or-leave decisions and can even affect worker productivity by shaping impressions of how competent the organization's managers are in meeting the challenges facing the organization. Virtual onboarding differs from its residential counterpart in that it can be more impersonal unless steps are taken to address that. A key problem in virtual onboarding is to make new hires feel welcome and help them become productive as quickly as possible even at a distance. This topic will help people who carry out onboarding by giving them ideas on how to conduct virtual onboarding experiences in the most effective ways, aligned with best practice and with the realities of new work settings where people work close apart.
